No. A set of rules anyone in the US must comply with to handle direct credit cards payments (as in, payments not through a payment service such as PayPal). Fines for noncompliance can be in order of hundreds of thousands of dollars per day of noncompliant operation.

I have a quick question, I quickly skimmed through the 9 pages of this topic and didn't see an answer, I had a WHMCS license through LicensePal, canceled it quite awhile ago. So since I paid at LicensePal, WHMCS doesn't have my credit card details, right?

A new WHMCS exploit scanner is being passed around IRC now. It checks for exploits on every single IP listed as active in the database. It's not that bad now (unless you never update WHMCS), but this is going to make future exploits a bad thing. It's not like most people are going to change their server IP just to protect themselves.

Phewww I just moved my WHMCS server today (unrelated to the hacking) Perfect day for this to happen!
